The Fun Factory Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 10 hours ago, MrDuck said: We didn't pull away to safety until he'd taken a step back and McAllister had taken the reins. I think Houllier just tried to change way too much way too quickly, we simply didn't have the players to do what he wanted to do. Off tangent to the thread but how we got 9th that season is a mystery. I think we gained over 15 points less than the year before and dropped only 3 places. However words like paper and crack spring to mind, and literally it has been downhill ever since. Yes Houllier could have become a decent Dof with a young coach- however Lerner just gave up and hired Mcleish. Baffling. Looks like Bruce is staying for now at least. I am not sure how to take the news tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa were dire in last 18 months of MON reign and was dull football so lot longer than that That is quite frankly, bollo*ks. MON last season Villa got 64 points, came 6th for 3 years in a row, and reached Wembley twice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSmirch Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) Have to hope 1 of Jokanovic, Wagner, Howe, Warnock, Hughton, Benitez get the sack by Christmas so there's a decent option open. Edited July 26, 2018 by MrSmirch Forgot Benitez! He’ll be off in no time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) The ironic thing is this thread is getting bumped up by all those that keep saying lock it up!

If it being too late in the summer to cause unstability by sacking current manager means he is rightly staying. Then I agree he is rightly staying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
